Between the White Hot Tour #9 brand new for about $90 and the Black i series #9 used (still in excellent shape, with only a couple of marks on the top of the head) for $130, which would you go for?

They feel pretty similar to me.

Are there any/many differences between the two (mainly thinking about the insert) other than their original cost and their trade-in/sale value?

Your opinions are appreciated.

They are pretty similar putters, with very similar inserts, the Black series is just a later version with updated engraving & paintfill.

I tried both and went with the WH Tour. It felt better to me, plus I liked the fact that the sight line went all the way back. I believe both models use the same insert (firmer than the XG series). Both are great putters.

There are actually three different ones:

The WHT is a 340g head. There are two black i series that I could choose from - one with a 340g head, and the other with a 350g head. However, all three are the same length, which surprised me a bit since I figured the 350g head would be on a 33" or 34" shaft. Maybe it was reshafted or lengthened at some point. . .

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
